A legendary open-world RPG set on the alien volcanic island of Vvardenfell, prized for its total freedom, bizarre world design and deep lore. With no quest markers, you navigate by directions, join factions and shape your character however you like.

Risen

Choices with consequences

A classic Piranha Bytes RPG in the spirit of Gothic: as a nameless castaway you explore a dense, handcrafted volcanic island, join a faction and claw your way from weakling to hero. Tough combat and a believable, lived-in world are its core strengths.

Gothic

Choices with consequences

As a nameless prisoner dumped into a mining colony sealed by a magic barrier, you claw your way up from nobody with no quest markers, joining one of three camps and learning skills only from trainers. Its harsh, believable world full of gruff characters and its unforgiving, clunky combat made it a cult classic.

Gothic II

Choices with consequences

A handcrafted, densely populated fantasy island where the Nameless Hero rises from weakling to champion, joins a faction, and has to earn every bit of progress the hard way. The cult classic thrives on its believable world, gruff dialogue and a superb sense of discovery.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Sandbox with your own goals

A vast, freely explorable northern realm packed with dragons, dungeons and side quests, where you grow into any role simply by doing it – warrior, mage or thief. The joy lies in wandering off in any direction and stumbling into stories everywhere.

The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall

Daggerfall is a vast sandbox RPG with a huge, procedurally filled world of cities and dungeons. You create your own class, join guilds and factions, and approach the main quest however you like.

Divine Divinity

Melee combat with weapons or fists

An early Larian action RPG with a huge, freely explorable world, countless side quests and a classless character system that lets you blend warrior, mage and thief skills as you like.
